Email wikitech-l, which is the tech list for the Wikimedia servers,
introducing yourself. Presumably chat to the devs on IRC on
#wikimedia-tech, fix a bug or two. (Database programming on a
soon-to-be-top-10 web site, that's a CV builder!) I *think* that's it.
I do know Wikimedia is perpetually desperate for good devs. Where
"dev" can mean all sorts of things. I'm sure Tim will be along
shortly.
